Another excellent question we received following seminars and presentations relates to the function and activity of metal scavengers. IUPAC nomenclature rules combined with various naming systems and ...
Now we have a screening candidate, we just need to scale up our work, it is always advisable to initially to scale in factors of ~10 in our experience, although for well-used processes and repetitive ...
There are two starting points, depending on your preference of whether you want to stir in a batch or flow something though a tube. If you plan to use large scale up reactors, then batch stir methods...
Removing palladium has become more and more difficult for a number of reasons. Industry is using it more frequently, due to its greener credentials as a catalyst but regulatory bodies are also reducin...
Whether for pharma, fine chemical, agrochemical, electronic or natural product research, in recent years, there has been increasing pressure to achieve and deliver higher purity products. Chemical pro...
I recently read an interesting paper from Graham Wynne and his many collaborators at the University of Oxford and CEMAS describing just how much residual palladium (Pd) is making its way through the s...
Once a chemist has seen and understands potential for the application of metal scavenging and reduction of classical iterative metal migration steps, the next question we receive usually relates to ho...
After my seminars, I often receive questions from astute attendees on the topic of activated carbon, and how the more modern powerful approach of metal scavenging compares to the traditional applicati...
Biotage metal scavengers are widely proven and adopted solutions for the removal of metals such as palladium, from chemical products such as APIs and used in industry thousands of times, the world ove...
I am often asked why reversed-phase TLC data does not translate well to reversed-phase flash column chromatography. There are several reasons for this and in this post I will attempt to explain the ch...
